> My PC is two years old. I bought it with 128 MB RAM, and I am damn glad I did. There are plenty of times when all the RAM is in use and a substantial fraction of my 200 MB paging file as well. I use Windows NT 4.0, which needs a lot of memory anyway. <

Just out of curiosity, what programs are you running to use so much memory? I have a machine with 192 Mbytes that I use for FPGA place and routes but this is a very rare application. If there is a commonly used ram hog, I would like to know.

The main ones I am familiar with are scanner/photo programs. Note that scanners have resolutions giving 30 Mpixels for a 8.5x11 scan while digital cameras only have about 1 Mpixel for a photo.
